Marcella Hazans Semifreddo di Cioccolato
- 2 cups very cold heavy cream
- 1 1/4 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
- 4 ounces very finely grated semi sweet baking chocolate
- 6 egg whites
- Whip the cream.
- Before it begins to stiffen and while it is still the consistency of buttermilk, add the confectioners' sugar a little at a time and continue whipping.
- When all the sugar has been incorporated and the cream is stiff enough to hold peaks, mix in the grated chocolate.
- Beat the egg whites until they are stiff but not dry; fold them into the cream and chocolate mixture.
- Line a loaf pan of 1 1/2 to 2 quarts with wax paper and pour the mixture into the pan.
- Cover with plastic wrap and freeze overnight.
- To serve, unmold the loaf onto a platter, remove wax paper and slice.
